How does music affect the brain?

The blurb:

"In this episode of Tech Effects, we explore the impact of music on the brain and body. From listening to music to performing it, WIRED's Peter Rubin looks at how music can change our moods, why we get the chills, and how it can actually change pathways in our brains."

For me the most interesting part was later in the video (10:20), how when we improvise we shut down the pre-frontal planning part of the brain and 'just go with the flow,' which is our most creative and innovation moments. This though does depend on having used the pre-frontal cortex in learning the techniques of music to get them so ingrained in memory that we are then free to play with what we've programmed.
